Abstract: In the socio-economic conditions complicated by the political events of recent years, the need for a balanced, professional management of rural development is growing. This requires the use of a more sophisticated mechanism that uses management tools at the state, regional and municipal levels proven by many years of practice, as well as new ones, conditioned by modern realities. Among the latter one can include instruments of qualitatively new forms of cooperative and integration relations between agricultural producers within the boundaries of rural territories, the creation of cluster-oriented formations in them. The main function of rural development should be rational use of the material, labour, financial resources of rural areas with the strengthening and appropriate motivation of state, municipal and economic management bodies and taking into account the interests of the rural population. The purpose of the study is to analyze the opinion of the population about the rationality of the current mechanism for managing rural development as the basis for the possible improvement of its integration component. Within the boundaries of rural areas, there is no mutually beneficial practical cooperation between large, medium and small businesses. The lack of transparency in the scope of state support for certain categories of agricultural producers, the varying availability of public and private investment for them, complicates the conditions for sustainable rural development. To activate the integration processes in rural development, it is necessary to take strategically justified decisions at all management levels.
